Can anyone recommend a printing service for canvas prints?

<p>I'd like to have an image printed on canvas for a present for my sister. I know she likes canvas prints better than on paper. The print would have to be delivered to Michigan. I'd prefer a somewhat finer canvas, as I've seen some that were printed on very coarse fabric that seemed to make getting a good level of detail impossible. <a href="../photo/16115355">This</a> is the image.</p>

<p>Siegfried -- have you considered a metal print? IMO, your image suits a metal print much better than a canvas. Metal prints have stunning color saturation and sharpness. Canvas has a nice soft lool.</p>

<p>I've had very good fortune with canvas prints from Mpix.com</p>

<p>Mpix does a great job, but Costco is less expensive although the frame construction is not quite as good.</p>

<p>It is possible to print on canvas and get an extreme level of detail that easily rivals paper, without giving up the 'look' of canvas that many buyers prefer. The inkjet receptive coating on the canvas weave is critical. The head alignment of the printer to the canvas surface is critical as well or the ink will not adequately reach the dips within the weave creating a subtle separation of the printed image when the canvas is stretched and fine detail will be lost.</p>

<p>Frame construction is also critical as flimsy frames will warp over a period of time. Finally, some coatings will crack over time. There are a number of variables in the process of printing an image on canvas that are critical to obtaining high quality in a finished product. Seldom do you know what type of printer, inks, canvas material and coating types are used by any given online supplier.</p>

<p>Thanks everyone, I'll look into Mpix. As far as the metal prints go, I'm pretty sure they'd be out of my price range.</p>

<p>Make sure in the future to take a look at <a href="http://www.pix2canvas.com">pix2canvas.com</a><br /> Its Americas oldest canvas photo to canvas brand since 2000. They only use the new Epson Exhibition canvas.</p>
